If you do not want to be a data hog and speed along like the Roadrunner no problem. It is a 2009 era phone and still keeps many of the basics that are still applicable.<br />Single-Core 600mhz 256MB RAM processor is a bit sluggish but what do you expect from 2009 when this phone debuted. Still fast enough on a good 3G signal for basic browsing and streaming videos.<br />The ONLY downfalls I found and that being this is the first of a great line to this day phone is the keyboard. The keys are way too flat and flush making for frequent double key-press entries. The battery is decent. There is a 2600mah sold on-line but would make the phone too thick. The phone is heavy but that is due to more metal in the construction than cheap plastic. Its a matter of personal taste if that is a bother.<br />Thereon, all the future droids are great as well with each having different things for everyone.<br />Definitely good competition for Samsung and Apple. :)</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p>https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=2320User Review: Motorola Droid A855https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=2320&r=41473#review41473
https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=2320&r=41473#review41473Thu, 07 Nov 2013 00:24:01 GMT <p><i>Mark_S submitted this review of the Motorola Droid:</i></p><p>Overall rating: <b>4.5</b> (out of 5)</p><p>Being that this phone is the foundation for many more of this line to come, the reviews have definitely been mixed. For a phone of this type and the time of its release, it is a great phone.<br />Everything is great, even the battery and camera for this type of Android device. Interface is slower because at release time phones were mostly 3G and the processor was not one of those quad-cores that are out now. <br />Keyboard I find is the worst layout tactile-wise. Very flat and flush keys cause double-letter errors frequently and stubby fingered individuals need to exercise patience.<br />Then again the touch-screen more that compensates. Guess it comes down to personal preference and taste. Data works well despite the slower UI and processor. Just make sure unnecessary apps are deactivated which also contributes to better battery life as well. Overall a great high-end CDMA device for its time and still can be used today for those that do not demand lightning speed and the utmost in bells and whistles. There are newer Droid models to choose from but the original stands the test of time.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p>https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=2320User Review: SKYPEhttps://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=2320&r=40325#review40325

This review is more about Android 2.2 that about the Droid, but the phone is in fact the best I have ever had.<br />But, I had to have a PDA, and cant afford a contract and such. My cell now is a walmart cheapo. I found my Droid at a flea market for $80, and since I was seeing 70-125 for a straight PDA, it was a no-brainer to buy the Droid. It took all of 20 minutes for me to question how I ever lived without Android.<br />Apps to do everything. The thing takes my PULSE!!!! Great camera for everyday use, and being able to upload a video i take on the phone, from the phone, is awesome!<br />It has no service right now, so everything I am doing with it is either no internet connection, of WIFI. Simply awesome. Contacts, calendar, tasks, email, CRM, diary, health and fitness tracking, camera amd camcorder, music player (streamed off the net or my own music), pic viewer, navigation (without connection if u get the right app and do a bit of work) and on and on. And it performs flawlessly! The 550mhz cpu struggles a bit sometimes, but with the current Andriods sporting 1GHZ dual cores, I don't think lag is an issue anymore. <br />I finally have a device that does everything I need it to do, and it does it all very well. It finally is a PC replacement for 70% of my work! Oh, and the voice recognition vie Google is so good I can dictate my book to my cell, upload it via wifi to google docs and share it with my publisher... all from my cell! Oh, and since Google yanked Docs offline support, Android is the ONLY platform you can seamlessly work with Google documents both online and offline.<br />No, there really wasn't life before Android!<br />And yes, I have used WinMo, Palm, iPhone and Symbian, and Nokias Maemo and whatever is on the N900. None of it holds a candle to Android 2.2</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p>https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=2320User Review: Junk! get a Droid 2https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=2320&r=38469#review38469

This phone in my eyes was very far off from the title smartphone the specs of the phone screams amazing and versatile but the actual use when you get into the meat and potatoes really sucked I gotta say.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p>https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=2320User Review: Fantastic Phone....https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=2320&r=37524#review37524

I have a verizon cell tower inside the building where I work so it's not the signal. This is from many different callers.<br />The battery life stinks unless: <br />You have an app killer and use it after every function. This is an absolutely ridiculous function to have to do. Even after getting a phone call, you have to undo the screen lock and push the app killer widget to save your battery life. I have forgot to do this and my battery is dead in 30 minutes. (no kidding)<br />The screen is an absolute dirt magnet.<br /><br />The browser and speed is second to none.<br />Not sure why Google can't fix the problem with the apps always running.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p>https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=2320User Review: perfection has a name!https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=2320&r=37306#review37306

Big screen, FB app enabled, Android based phone, good software, it runs fast, but the turn on and the sliding up the phone speed is slow, sound quality.<br /><br />Cons:<br />When you slide up the phone, it takes about 4-5 seconds for the phone screen homepage with the icons to load.<br /><br />Turning on the phone. 2 people I spoke with had said that this phone had taken 30-45 seconds to turn on. It seems as if the blackberry turn on speed is about the same? I'm just saying when i had owned and used store models, when you had a system update or when you'd get the phone out of the box new, it would be slow for it to power on. But I understand because the phones themselves are very nice ones.<br /><br />BACK TO PROS:<br />I love the size of the keys. I used a model at Verizon and I seemed to be able to type tons of a lot faster. I don't know why I am able to, but I also seemed faster on my Samsung then I was on this model.<br /><br />Overall if you want a smart phone plan i suggest you should consider this phone.</p> <p><i>(Follow link to rate this review or report it to us as inappropriate.)</i></p>https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/p_forum.php?ff=2320User Review: Best Phone I Have Ever Owned!https://www.phonescoop.com/phones/user_reviews.php?phone=2320&r=36847#review36847
